Sorry again will, but its not a straw man, I really find none of your arguments compelling. We know you and I have different world views and standards of evidence. To me it was the illegal capture of a ship at sea and green peace should be liable for damages, and had any police or crew been injured or killed as a result of that action, held accountable for that aspect as well.

The only thing which they can and should be held liable for is vandalism.

The cost of operating a ship per day is not difficult to determine.
